Diffeomorphic Registration of Images with Variable Contrast Enhancement

Figure 8

Results for the variable contrast experiment on 30 phases (3 patients with 10 phases each). (a) Boxplots of the energy of deformation after all 4 registrations. (b) Boxplots of the minimum Jacobian after all 4 registrations. From (a) to (b), these registrations are Demons (light blue), Morphons (light green), diffeomorphic Demons (dark blue), and diffeomorphic Morphons (dark green). For each box, the center horizontal line represents the median value, the box goes from the lower quartile to the upper quartile, and the vertical lines represent the most extreme values within 1.5 inter quartile range. The crosses represent outlier values.
